My daughter moved to Denver 10 years ago. I visited twine a year. It was clean and safe. A few sketchy areas to be avoided like all cities….but very, very few street people, panhandlers, etc., visible in downtown. After a couple of years the deterioration started becoming noticeable. Getting worse each year. She finally moved out last fall. It seemed to be turning into a 3rd world $hithole. In 5 years it will be San Francisco
Haven’t been to Colorado in some time. I used to go there a lot, but am older now & seldom travel anywhere, but especially stay out of Colorado. That state is absolutely screwed up & dangerous now as I see it. They need to get the governor & the rest of their administration behind bars & then start over. So sad because it used to be a beautiful travel spot. Wouldn’t travel there now if they paid me.
